Notes

Notes:
It was raining for the first few minutes of first set, had been raining all afternoon.
It started pouring about 10 minutes into the second set and didn't let up.
Sound quality set 1 start is muddy. vocals low, get louder ~ 3:12
& (Band back on) and Bob Says "big hand for the rhythm devils
ladies and gentlemen"
** From start until ~ 02:33 levels were clipping on master; I reduced levels ~5dB.

/ Our practice at the time was to stop the recorder after
every time the band stopped. The theory was saving
batteries and tape space. We would learn to record the
entire show by Spring 83! This was our second recording we mastered!

Red Rocks Amphitheatre Morrison CO Night 1 FRI July 27 1982
mic location- 75 feet from stage about 40 feet left of center.
If you were at these shows you will mention the rain within 30 seconds of recalling the experience. It rained at least a portion of every day of the three. On this Friday, it had been raining off and on all afternoon. It was raining for the first few minutes of first set, then stopped.
It started pouring about 10 minutes into the second set and didn't let up until the encore. Phil was standing in water on the stage while local crew were squeeging waves if water off the stage. Somehow, for our second only master we made a decent recording as we thought to place one of those cheap plastic poncho's they sell at venues up and over the cowboy hat. Hard to truly say after 35 years, but this show will always be my most remembered Red Rocks show as it was my first, and the experience led me to make sure it would not be my last time there.
